Indentation and Tree View of List Pages NAV

Hi All,

Here we will talk about the Indentation Properties available on Pages.

These properties Applies to Pages of Type = Group &  Subtype = Repeater

If you go to property of  Repeater Control, we will see few properties which controls the Indentation for List pages.







IndentationColumnName Property : 
Here we specify the column that will control the Indentation. The Data Type has to be Integer.
We can use a Table field or a Variable to set this property.


IndentationControls Property :
Here we choose columns on which we need indentation. Click on Assitbutton  and select the appropriate columns and press OK.



As you can see below the Name Column is Indented. Once you run Indent Chart of Accounts.



How does the Name column got indented, simple based on Integer table field "Indentation"  which gets updated when you run Indent Chart of Accounts.

Indentation field Value is set to a Variable NameIndent on OnAfterGetRecord trigger.

NameIndent Variable is mapped to  IndentationColumnName Property.




ShowAsTree Property :

Sets the indentation of rows on a List Page to Tree View. If you enable this property, you can expand or collapse indented rows on a List Page





Similarly we can use the above properties of Repeater Control List page to Indent or show tree view on Documents SubPage as well,



Thanks & Regards,
